Quote by William Wordsworth

“What though the radiance which was once so bright Be now for ever taken from my sight, Though nothing can bring back the hour Of splendor in the grass, of glory in the flower; We will grieve not, rather find Strength in what remains behind..." from "Ode: Intimations of Immortality from Recollections of Early Childhood”

And then the shadow was gone. Darkness overwhelmed her then and carried her away to a land of crows and mocking strangers.”
